PIETRO GAETA – NOW LAB

I received an invitation from the Architect Gaeta 3 weeks ago, to visit his stand “Now-Lab”during MACEF 2012 in Milan. Gaeta is a famous architect and designer that collaborated and still do in high level projects over the world (click here) as well as exhibitions. Over the years he designed concept and detailed design for shops, factory stores, hotels, luxury houses, villas and offices. Many of the works are published in national and internation books and magazines.

Even if we met several times, and I heard about his work but I have never had the chance to see and touch his creations: wallpapers, resin pannels, mirrors…What I like in his design philosophy are essentially two things: On one hand the use of high technology as digital printing and digital mosaic that reveals a lot of research and creativity, and on the other hand, the importance that he gives to the superficies which have differents natures. Indeed, he manages several technologies once again, you use your senses to reach them. He gives a modern and sophisticated touch that I really like! Of course you cannot miss “David” in his prints.

Gaeta affirmed that: “David (by Michelangelo) was a great inspiration because he is the symbol of male beauty. The masterpiece of Renaissance sculpture, one of the most important Italian works”.

Thank you Gaeta for the invitation and for the shooting!

“Resin Art Panel” is a graphic artwork made in digital printing and epoxy resin on dibond type panel. Limited edition of 36 signed and numbered.

The goal of Gaeta is to have open spaces and minimize unused spacereducing the barriers, he developed a new concept where internal and external environments interpenetrate
